Now Star Wars makes sense, thanks!

Given openFPGA on the Analogue Pocket, if you can get one at msrp, the extra $20 makes that device seem like a way better value than this.

I hope collaborative workflows get a lot of attention. I haven't used IDA teams or anything, but a reverse engineering experience that felt as frictionless as Google Docs would be amazing.

Yeah. I’ll only go to theaters for something imax worthy, which is pretty much only Dune part 2 for the year.

Can’t forget low bit rate “4k” saves them tons of money on storage and bandwidth costs as well.

I don’t quite understand why they happily subscribe to this model with Xbox PlayStation and Nintendo, but are adamant about getting their way with Google and Apple.

1.78 trillion dollar company could have made app, or even better, not disable the iPad version in contempt.

I wouldn’t go as far as saying it’s blackmail. They voiced their concerns peacefully, and requested a review. It will likely be ignored, as it deserves to be.

What about a DFU restore?

Without Secure Enclave, remote parties (the servers) can't know where the key material came from. I'm assuming because old devices pre-SEP have to be supported, Beeper is exploiting this since there's no required residency or provenance attestation for the keys.

I'm also not convinced uber eats will ever make money.

Everywhere should accept cash, and every place should also (try) to support tap to pay.

I’ll gladly pay an extra 5% for a donut if it means I don’t have go to an ATM, withdraw the minimum, and forget the change in my car anyway.

The problem with armor class is that it sort of blends in two concepts of completely missing an attack, and the attack simply not doing any damage.

Generally I've had DM's that understand your characters AC: if you have high AC because you're quick and nimble, it would be some sort of dodge, but if you have high AC because you're huge and wear plate armor, the attack "miss" is treated as if an arrow simply bounced off your armor.

But yeah, the system is generally broken. That's sort of why the devs of Baldurs Gate 3 had to homebrew a lot of fixes, and in general just gave up on a lot of mechanics and can't really implement anything past level 12.

This is definitely one of the most frustrating aspects of working within the TPM ecosystem. Sure the spec is messy, and doing simple things can feel needlessly complicated, but when you run into some firmware bug, it's horrible to debug, and the best you can really do is file a ticket with Intel/AMI/whoever and pray for something to change.

> TPMs will happily hand you the keys when you meet a certain condition. HSMs support key migration and provides a secure way to transfer keys from one HSM to another without leaving the trust boundary.

You can create non-exportable keys on TPM's, and there are mechanisms to securely transfer keys between devices.

Granted, doing so is kind of a mess, but nonetheless possible.
